The Cavalier commissioner of the Supreme Junta of Asturiiii, Don Josef Arguelles Quinimet,- has ad= dressed to Ole Secretary Of the said Supreme Junta, Don Balbaz,ar Cienfuegos Jovellanos, the following dispatch, dated Boron, 14th March " Yererday, 'at four in the evening, there arrived en Officer of the battalion of Sierro, :with a serjeant of the party of Signor Diaz Porlier, who had been sent on to apprite toe of the happy result of thoeti terprise resolved npon vagainst Cerbera. As I was informed that there Was reason to apprehend the are r, rival of the reinforcements expeetod in that town, • and that the united force - of the enemy should ad vance in pursuit of us, I formed the corps under my command, and reinained readiness to march as occasion should require, taking care, at the same time, to have carts in readiness for the conveyance Of the baggage. I also dispatched orders to General Lilli to move towards Tan with the corps under his command, and to send advice to Colonel Cangas de Onis to cover or reinferce the points of Ventaniella, Beza, and Aceilorio ; and also to the Commandant de Lillo, in the event of being unable to form a Junction with me at this place, to tall back to the positions in his rear. But Signor Porlier, and Capt.' Mareuestan, having arrived here, assured me that there was no occasion to retreat. The troops under 'my command, therefore, made no movements. — The only precaution taken was to send forward a strong advanced guard, much more numerous than the Officers I have tneniioned thought necessary.qp. Ti.e Courier dispatched by Signor Diaz Porlier this day being charged with dispatches containing parti culars of the trans4tions at Cerbera, I have nothing to ad& except to recommend to your cousideretion the Merit of that Commander,. which being already distinguished on 'many occasions, and being pot a little signalized by this holdenterprize, I am induced to think that your ExCellencies will be pleased to keep him in view, to honour him wlth such degree of promotion as may be thought proper. In like manlier, your Excellencies will be satis'Aed with the 'cendttet of our troops, who, as their Officers assure Coadtkaeil themselves with the greatest brnVery., with the exception of some soldiers who were miss ing from the party of the regiment of Sierro, that advai,ced hob, Pedrosa.—The same good conduct Was exhibited by the soldiers of my party of the re 'girnent of Laredo, and those of the Signor Porlier, and particularly these under Serjeatit Canton,. who distinguished himself by his act:vity in the surnrize .6 f - Sanagun, being the,first who entered thequarterf Of the Commandant. iam assured that Signor Pore tier will, be ;tech pleased to find this brave fellow followed with the rank of Cornet, and also if the tame promotion 4boultt be conferred on another sere • leapt of cavalry vatted Bartholomew-v-a man who, though he was not in the action, because be—was i l mPloYed in covering a point by which the ene.ry might have cut off the troop that were at Cerbera, Is a man of clutch merit, etld has .rendered greet sere Vices. Sig. Porlier wilt also be much gratified it the French Commander made prisoner shall be treated Pettfally. Ali inhabilatits of the town were highly iiii)istied with the good treatment they expe•- tienced from this Gener3l, Mel the humanity be *hewed toward, item. This General has requested permission to write a letter to a friend, with a view to obtain a remittance or money ; but though be t r d rit 10 o*,, and give it into our hands, it did not IP 4 tir to us regular to forward it of our own audio- ntr• I therefore seed der that if it to you: Excellency, in or no inconvenience should appear to you to be likely to r e t u l t , i t may be forwarded to its atlitress: Ihia Comovinder will be seat forward to-morrow, accompanied by a Mogiurate of the same town ) and an Advocate , . .who have been taken up as suspeded persons, and are detained and sent to be kept in en . stody while the necessary exansinatioos are made Into their conde6.l.—lSl3 Got " 41 / 4 3 '° preserve'." c. . • DISi'A4:2II t.ILirrE:dANI• tOLONEL DON JUAN DIAZ rORLICII. 01112CTED TO Ttlu sAme SEC2E CIIRTARy, RLvitzsaNTlNG 'l'll2 SUPllltale JUNTA. " Having concerted necessary measures with Ca valier Arguelles, Deputy of the'Stipreine Junta, and with th e Capoin of. the Regiment of Sierra, Don Antonio Matquesta, , upon the intelligence which we veceived nt there being in - terbuta de Pisuergl 150 french troops .employed in exacting contributiolls 'from the whole or that neighbourhood, we resolved unanimously to surprise them, in the night of the ' . 5111 h, with,l3o Asturians of the said Regiment, and / ten of my Orty. We coninsenced our march in the nightrof the toth, with silence and caution, and :irrved by; the following night at St. Martin de los I - lei - erns, which is a league and a half from Cerbera; tot having iepeived information that the number of the enemy collected there was.little short of seven notitired,, and that they were very vigilant, keeping 00oble .sentinels, and observing other precautions, 4;:t that 01l thb bribe at ten o'clock, they intended 'to etuvitain the people with asolernn 're Delon in tile 1 , 1 imipal church; for the supposed surrender of we formed immediately the resolution to ntiaeli them, in the midst of this mockery of. reli saw. The attack( MS accordingly carried into cf. , .led in the follai*lng manner caused to be placed, at certain regular intervals, persons well ac quaititt:d with the localities of the place, one of atlas Feliciano Oandano, chief corporal of my party, a well conduaed man, and a native of that town. Hun I ordered to introduce himself into the town., and to observe quietly, with his accustomed discivtion and zeal, the position and movements of the. enemy, Sending me information by the emissa ries I ll'ad posted at intervals on the road—all which , itf;tru6tions he fulfilled eintaly. 4t the same time, dispatched a dragooni with two foorsoldiers, to .the vicinity, of Saint Salvador, distant two leagues from 4Cerbera, en the side ut Poles, es videttes, in conse• iuence of having received information that there were in that quarter 200 Frenchmen, who might at * critical moment advance and annoy us. I sent, at the sane time; another advanced party of the same force on the road of Aguillar, where I %4as told that there w,as . a French party with two pieces of artille ry. Having thus cut off all communication with the ueighbonrhood; and having, as the last precaution, Placed three parties of 2n men each, one on the road 0 f St. Salvador, another on the bridge which leads to .and a third ate ford by which a ineS . k i'ger might pass to these.points—having taken all these precautions, I divided the rest of my troops im u two bodies one or these, consisting or fitty fleP, I committed to Captain Marquesta, with le itr,Aions to take possession of the gate of the Au gustinian Convent, in which we supposed the enemy kept their arms, with a view of cutting utr the ene my from them, if fortunately their troops should he at the time in the church without arms. With the other body I introduced myself into-the town, at a moment when; unfortunately, some of the officers of the new order of things were making their roueds. They were all alarmed, and as soon as they peiceised my party; many oft hem ran to the convent,where they barricadoed themselves before Ma notate could come up. Others remained in the square and streets, in which : they colleded in bodies, with a view to defend them selves. Under these circumstances my plan could not be carried into effed : but every thing consider ed, the situation of the enemy, and the superiority of his force, it seemed best to me to leave small parties to skirmish with them, and with the remain der of my party to forni a junction with Marquesta, and then to fortify: ourselves -in a' grove near. the convent ; and also 'to take possession of the end of the next street to the convent, with the . view of securing ourselves on both flanks, from the constant destruttive fire" kept up from hi6P-holes and windows: The building which we i'eized upon is of stone, and therefore well calculated to afford opportunity of injuring the ene my, without being injured by them ; but preferring an open action, and circumstances favouring the ir resistible iMpressiGn made by the valour of our brave though little army, I had the sstisfattion to obtain a decided adaitag-, and to maintain my ground from eleven in the Morning to the same hour at !light, at which time, the ammunition falling short, I made a feint attack, in order to withdraw the companies, which was effeded without any other annoyance than that of a light skirmish, and that of short dura tion. .1 cannot particularly enumerate the loss the enemy sustained in the convent, but a great number oldead bodies were seen ) and according to infor mation subsequently fdceivect, they dispatched no less than thirty cars of WoOnded in the direction of Agui I tar. I can, howev6r,, assure your Excellency that I saw myself sixty Preach' soldiery, and four officers, lying dead in the town', While our loss con sists of only twelve killed, end vhirreen wounded, hone of them dangerously ; I have', besides, the itiumph of having made prisoner M... Monet, Major- General of The Guards of Paris, tninthandant of the tssul regiMent of the line, and Knight of the Legion of Honour, with twelve. French ant - diets, whom I send to you. ", We had taken some more, but they died of their wounds this evening. It would be doing in justiee to M. Monet, not to mentiou that 'all the in habitants of Cerhera commended him for having conducted himself in a mild and benevolent Manner in that neighbourhood, and that in the aifi of surren dering himself, he shewed the goodness of his dispo sition, and used his influence to engage the rest bf the Frenchmen to lay down their arms, which cer tainly they would have done; if those who had se cered themselves in the conveut - had not induced them to hold otn, with the assurances of reinforce ments, which, in fee, arrived during the a6tion.—' It would be the greatest iejustice, if I did not point out to your Excellency the good conduct of the tredpi who were engaged, who are deserving of the highest rewards and distinaions that can be bestow ed on flea', a hake which I recommend, in order that these brave warritirs may, in their farther en tetprises, redouble their exertions for the defence of their conbtry, and holy religion. It is a source of the greatest satisfaaion to me to consider, that not heinghalf so numerous, and being deficient in all the experience in ware which the French possess, every one. of them was equal to two of the enemy, as was folly proved by the result of this bloody What firmness, and what enthusiasm was dis played by our brave Asturian', whose character was not before sufficiently known to me! What aaivity, intrepidity, and boldness were shown by the Leon ese and Castilians, whom I have the honour to com mand on this glorious occasion ! What discretion and punauality were evinced by all the Officers whose advlce and assistance supported My feeble' exertions! All exceeded the limits' of my expesSta tions ; awl the distinguished instances are so nume rOo, that it will require some time IA enable me to make out a, detailed account; hut cannot pass over in silence the extraordinary skill and valour of My brother officer Signor Marquesra—lhe firmness, bravery, and heroic contempt of life, with which the Captain Don Vincent Roderigues Carbajal al. ways assisted at my side•-•-the intrepidity and judi dons condo l of the Sub-Lieurenant Don Joaquin Diaz Baredo, an Officer who is very young in years, but formed for war, and who, being wounded itt one arm, remained in aBion till be 'was exhausted by loss of blood—the courage and condo& of Don Manuel Calieia—the promptitude, calmness, and bravery of my Ensign, Don Antonio Garcia--how tan I omit the distinguished zeal, fidelity, and vs low of Serjeant Francis Canton, who, assisted only by two soldiers, of whose names I am ignorant, en countered a shower of balls poured on them by the French, who were assembled in the square—how Can 1, in fine, forget, that all this success is 'in reality the effect of timely aid and counsel, for which I am indebted to the Junta and its Representative, the Cavalier Arguelles :Quinones.--I consider my self particularly favoured in all this business,. though nothing has been done in which duty has not de prived me of merit. 4 f Oh ! if we had but a couple of pieces of light artillery, to batter the gates of the Convent, or t5O sabres, with some more fire arms ! But considering all circumstances, I am - convinced that what has, been drone can never be surpassed. I will take care to make out the details of everything as soon as pos. At present I am unable to nrnlion by name any individuals who have dktinguished themselves, and particularly ofthose who fell. I hope your Ex cellency will excuse this delay; and accept the faith ful account I give of all I know. May God our Lord preserve, &C. The General of Division ,of the 'West of our army, by dispatches from his head-qoarter4 of Tar ramundi, dated 12th March, informs his Excellency Don Josef Ciennitlegos Jovellanos, General of the interior of. thit pro vince , that the . attack took place in the manner md form us he had befo:e advised him, as follows - "' At four in the morning we attacked the enemy, who were posted in Villanueva de , Lori-ozau'a, with a considerable Rime of infantry., and 360 horse. I distlibuied my foto iLtes three column's, the first , commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Don Pedro Li- !urea, which occupied Cabarcos, compute a of lfigti men, with the view 01 coming - upon the enemy by the road that cummunie.ates 'between It.ivadett and the loan of Lorenzana. The second, under-the summated of Don Josef 'Garcia Grozco, 1000 strong; and a third of the same strength, under Lieuteriant- Culunel D.in Mariano Ruxo; so that while . two co lumns were destined for an attack in front, pursu 7 jag the road fro Mondenedu .to 'tt.e town of Lc renzana, ore spied . by the teem . ) , *, 'the three. co- lumas would stirround ti,emf a:W come epon them at the same time, alhAt a L'ontplete resuli'maY be expected. " But the enemy having, in the night, called in his detachments from Trebada, and the plaees vicinity, evacuated the town of Lorenzana, and re turned to the heights between that place and IVIon;. dialed°. On his march be was attacked bythe co. lutunsofOrozco,and Roxo, whose fire was so warm and so well supporta, that I promised mys,if it would throw the enemy into confusion, and cause him to fall back upon the column-of Linares, which was upon his flank, and would complete his destruc tion.. But from a confusion among the cavalry, the enemy was 'enabled .to extricate himself from the terrible sit - nation in which he was, yet not , without considen.ble loss. Upon this J turned all 44 atten tion to there-union of toy troops, and .to. reptilsta the enemy, by whom they were, annoyed in several quarters. I succeeded in colleting the several corps at Lindin, an.l the vicinity of than place, whence I resolved to return, and re-occupy the posts I had left hr this line. The regiment of Solos, which I had left in Mondouedo to secure the Conveyance of stores and provisions, was attacked in that town dur ing our retreat; but by the skill and energy of its Commander, and its ether Officers, the enemy met so vigorous a resistance, that they allowed them to retire in good order, hyt,which means our 'retreat also was facilitated. This obiea was nu less faci litated by Captain Don Isidro- la thia who was sta tioned with 3 . detachment to cover the height of Unclip. The braverY of this Officer 'maintained, with the loss of only t %tar men, a position, which, if the enemy had gained it, woeldinive annoyed Us a little. I cannot, till I receive the returns, de tail to your Excellency the loss of the enemy or our own, which last' was however, not consider able. All that I cotrimunicate to your Excellency is for the information of the Supreme Junta 4 through .yonr ExceLerhy from. (Oviedo Gaulle, of Mut ch THE.MANSION.LIOUSE BALL. (tuaTeita rAa(,cuLAas.) The dancing .commenced with " The Pritire tit Wakes Minuet." Miss FLowett (the bidy Mayor ess) danced admirably.; so did the Earl of lqoaTox. The Country Dances teak place at ten o'clock, with the favourite tune of Ahrsiana, by Mr. etrwris and Miss l'alca. This rational ainuietnetit, was soon put a stop to by the crowd, which became's° exces• sive, about half-past ten, as to bear` down every, thing before it. Thu usual barrier (a Wan•len railing) to keep 'oti the spetiators, was eempletely carried away by the overwhelming torrents. All this bustle and confusion were used in consequence of the pub. lic curiosity being much excited, frotu the previously favourable report Of the LADY IthYongss's beauty. Miss FLowan sat in the long gallery, on a state chair, surrounded by a groupe, of Ladies, all youtig, and with personal charms the most recommendatory. When the LADY MA YOURS& departed (IQ o'clock) she carried with her her court, i. e. her most inti mate female friends. The •room was then 'suffici ently cleared for dancing, Which commenced with " Light and Airy," by ail officer of the London Militia, and Miss ROBARTS. Four sets were formed, with about forty couple in each, It was not until past four in the morning, that the merry dance con cluded; not even then the company t which at that late hour exceeded 2000 persons) quitted that scene of enchantment with much apparent regret. • The Ladies were more magnificently dressed than usual ; the display of jewellery, was rich beyond example; On Friday-morning a very line third-rate Line of-baAle.
